Section 106 agreements are used by the local planning authority to obtain a contribution from developers towards improving local infrastructure and amenities, such as affordable housing.
As with most aspects of the planning system, this is a fast-moving area, and financial contributions that were once secured through Section 106 agreements are now dealt with via the Community Infrastructure Levy.
